[ANN] midilib 0.8.4 released

J

Jim Menard

midilib (http://midilib.rubyforge.org) is a pure Ruby MIDI library
useful for reading and writing standard MIDI files and manipulating
MIDI event data. Classes include MIDI::Sequence, MIDI::Track,
MIDI::Event, and MIDI::IO::MIDIFile and its subclasses
MIDI::IO::SeqReader and MIDI::IO::SeqWriter.

==== Changes for 0.8.4:

* Realtime status bytes now set @is_realtime to true and return true
when
realtime? is called.

* All system common events now set @is_system to true and return true
when
system? is called, not just system exclusive events.

* Added examples/from_scratch.rb, which shows how to create a sequence
manually.

* New MIDI::Sequence methods that turn note length names like "32nd",
"dotted
quarter", and "16th triplet" into delta times. See the docs below and
MIDI::Sequence::length_to_delta, MIDI::Sequence::note_to_length, and
MIDI::Sequence::note_to_delta.

"...it uses Smalltalk, rather than modern-day kludges such as Java,
which
resembles a modern object-orientated environment in the way that a pub
ashtray
resembles a cigar store."
